Please see the condition description above. Trying to be as upfront as possible about the flaws. I plan to add a few more pictures soon of the interior and close ups of the things mentioned in the condition description above. A few more note on the condition in the interest of up front disclosure; it has had paintwork done over the years but not because of accidents; It has been because of paint fade,  chairs are in great condition except there is a bit of a tear in the head rest of the drivers seat. It is inexpensive to replace. The drivers side interior door panel has a small tear in it due to the seat belt head digging into the panel when someone closed it. It could be glued down fairly easily.There is also a small crack in one of the hubcaps. It is not very noticeable. FYI - under the hubcaps it does have the factory red center caps on the wheels. There is oil in the engine compartment. It looks to me like it came from a loose hose at one point and possibly needing to replace the valve gasket at another point (which was done and then redone again recently). Not currently leaking any oil. I don't like to clean out the engine compartment on these because it gets in the distributor cap. However, it would not be all that difficult form someone to do if they wanted to. 

I have loved this car and done all maintenance plus extra things just to take good care of it. Interior, exterior, and mechanically it is in excellent condition. Only reason I am selling it is because it is a two seater and I have decided to get something that has a back seat for my kids. I prefer my cars to be all stock and you will find this one is too. I did put a CD player in it (was a cassette player and I couldn't take that), but as you can see from the pics it is a honda CD player. To go along with this I put high quality speakers in place of the stock speakers and they now sound incredibly good. I also installed a console in between the seats because these things don't have a lot of storage - but that also looks stock. I put some rubber Honda floor mats in there to protect the rather rare stock CRX floor mats that are in like new condition. 


Just so you know, the passenger side rear view mirror is not broken off. The HF edition was designed this way in order to minimize wind resistance and maximize fuel efficiency (HF = high fuel). Honda made several other modifications on this model (as compared o the other models) to increase fuel efficiency.

I know the history of the car and that the regularly scheduled maintenance has been done for it's entire life (which is considerable - it has 330k on it). It looks and drives like it has about a tenth of those miles on it. About 45 thousand miles ago the following regular maintenance was done: timing belt, suspension system, fuel pump, and clutch replaced. The valve adjustment was just done about 5 thousand miles ago (have been done annually since it was purchased new) and I went ahead and replaced the valve gasket then too. Brakes and tires are good all the way around. Other recent (within the last 18 months) maintenance performed includes: front passenger full axle shaft replaced, front passenger upper control arm replaced, master cylinder replaced, radiator replaced, exhaust resonator and resonator pipe replaced, main relay re-soldered, and blower motor replaced. 

Due to the fact that all the regular maintenance has always been kept up the car has been worked over top to bottom to the point of almost having more new parts than it does old. It has been regularly cleaned inside and out and waxed more than once a year. The oil has been changed about every 3500 miles and a full synthetic oil has been used for at least the last 5 years (not sure what the previous owner did). I also use a fuel injector cleaner about every third time I fill up. 

It is my daily driver and I am unafraid to take it on long trips (have made quite a few four and six hour trips in it - one way). I get about 50 miles to the gallon. I commute 30 minutes one way to work (Boonville) and always take my CRX. It does really well in the snow due to how light it is and because it is front wheel drive. Was able to get around pretty easily even in the heaviest of snows we have had the last couple of years. These things just don't quit - even when they have been abused, but particularly when they have been so well cared for. 

Car will not be shipped unless you choose to have it shipped and pay for that independently from this transaction. It is in Columbia, Mo. I may be willing to drive out and meet you somewhere to shorten your drive to pick it up but it depends on the drive, date of pick up, etc.

6/26/14 - UPDATE: AT ABOUT MIDNIGHT THE NIGHT OF THE 26TH I UPDATED THIS POST BY ADDING MORE PICTURES. NOW INCLUDES MORE PICTURES OF THE INTERIOR, IMPERFECTIONS, ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND MANUALS. I took a closer look at the head rests and the good thing is that there is no fabric missing. This means it would be a pretty easy fix with some fabric glue and something to hold the fabric into place. The Civic CRX manual is the original manual from when the car was purchased new on 7-9-90. It has a letter from the dealer inside the manual that discusses the cars emissions control equipment (which was pretty new back then) along with the original owners name and information. I do have a few more pics I could send you if you are wanting to see some more of the engine compartment and interior. Also, be sure to check the vehicle history report above. It has a squeaky clean history.

Honda profit targets tumble in wake of Takata scandal

Fri, Jan 30 2015

Takata's massive airbag inflator recall will likely do some damage to Honda's bottom line this year, according to the Japanese automaker's latest forecasts. The company will allocate 50 billion yen ($425 million) to fulfill costs related to the safety campaigns, Reuters indicates. The decision will reduce estimated operating profit by about 6.5 percent to 720 billion yen ($6.1 billion US) for the fiscal year ending March 31. In addition to lower profits, Honda also cut back its sales estimate for the year to 4.45 million vehicles from the previous 4.62 million, according to Reuters. This was largely due to lower-than-expected demand in Japan. "We are not seeing a big impact on sales in North America from the airbag issue," company vice president Tetsuo Iwamura (pictured above) told Reuters. The decreased forecasts come at the same time as the possibility of another death in a Honda vehicle from the Takata parts. According to Automotive News, a man in Florida died in a crash in his 2002 Accord, but investigators have not yet determined whether the inflator was the cause. However, the vehicle was included in a 2011 recall for the part and was not repaired. The family intends to file a lawsuit alleging the inflator ruptured, spraying metal shrapnel into the driver's neck. Reportedly, the owner was never notified of the recall. While the Takata inflator recall is affecting many companies with alleged links to at least five deaths and 139 injuries worldwide, Honda has it among the worst. Including vehicles covered under the previous regional repair campaign for the issue, the automaker needs to repair roughly 5.4 million vehicles just in the US. Honda has taken action by employing suppliers other than Takata to supply some of its replacement parts for the recall. The business is also reportedly switching airbag suppliers for the next-gen Accord and possibly the 2016 CR-V and Odyssey.

Best compact SUVs of 2023 and 2024

Thu, Oct 20 2022

Compact SUVs are now the go-to choice for family transportation. Actually, considering how popular they are, they have clearly moved beyond only family duty. With such popularity, though, comes an awful lot of competitors, and it can be difficult to figure out which one might be the best compact SUV for you.  It's important to note that by "compact SUV" we're talking about a specific segment. As we describe in our more comprehensive "Best small SUVs" list, there are also subcompact SUVs that vary widely in size amongst themselves, but are clearly smaller than the SUVs below. Frankly, today's segment of compact SUVs isn't exactly compact — some have more cargo space than vehicles that are considered midsize based on their exterior dimensions. They've all grown considerably over the years. While many lists out there just rattle off every vehicle available in a segment, we thought we'd be a bit more helpful and curate your shopping a bit with the top-recommended choices reviewed by Autoblog. We've included both mainstream and compact luxury SUV choices. Best compact SUVs of 2023 and 2024 2024 Honda CR-V Why it stands out: Best-in-class space; excellent hybrid powertrain; sharp interior style; Honda dependabilityCould be better: No lower-price base trim levels; no sporty or off-road niche models; no plug-in hybrid Read our full 2024 Honda CR-V Review Consider the CR-V the baseline for any compact SUV search, and look extra closely at the superb CR-V Hybrid option. Objectively speaking, it's tough to beat due to its massive cargo capacity, voluminous back seat, strong-yet-efficient engines, well-balanced driving dynamics, competitive pricing and features,  and well-regarded reliability. It's easy to see why it continues to be such a best-seller: for the vast majority of compact SUV buyers, and especially families, it checks every box. That's been the case for many years now, however. The all-new 2023 Honda CR-V changes things up by adding a bit more style and character, particularly in terms of its interior design and how surprisingly enjoyable the Sport and Sport Touring hybrid trim levels are to drive.

2015 Green Car Of The Year finalists announced, run alt-fuel gamut

Tue, Oct 21 2014

The 2015 edition of the Green Car of the Year award is following right in the footsteps of previous years with a variety of alt-fuel powertrains making the just-announced finalists list. You've got your plug-in vehicle (the BMW i3), your compressed natural gas (the Chevy Impala Bi-Fuel), your high-efficiency diesel (the Audi A3 TDI), your 40+ mile-per-gallon gas engine (the Honda Fit) and, finally, a car that can do a little bit of everything (the VW Golf). The Golf is available – at least in some parts of the US – with three different powertrains: a 2.0-liter diesel, a gasoline engine and all-electric drive. The Impala can burn either natural gas or gasoline in its 3.6-liter engine. The A3 is an efficiency champ, able to get 73.5 mpg on some European tests. The i3 can be a pure electric vehicle or come with a short range extending engine. And the Fit brings 41 miles to the gallon in a practical, affordable package. The GCOY award is announced every year at the Los Angeles Auto Show by Green Car Journal. The committee doesn't just take the fuel-saving technology into account, but also a vehicle's "availability to the mass market." Last year, the Honda Accord Hybrid/Plug-In Hybrid won top honors, following up on wins from the Ford Fusion models (plug-in hybrid and hybrid) for 2013, the Honda Civic Natural Gas for 2012 and the Chevrolet Volt for 2011. FINALISTS ANNOUNCED FOR 2015 "GREEN CAR OF THE YEAR"" Green Car Journal to Reveal Winner of 10th Annual Award at LA Auto Show" Press & Trade Days, November 20 LOS ANGELES, CA (October 21, 2014) – Green Car Journal has announced its five finalists for the magazine's high-profile 2015 Green Car of the Year® program. The 2015 models include the Audi A3 TDI, BMW i3, Chevrolet Impala Bi-Fuel, Honda Fit, and VW Golf. The Green Car of the Year® award, an honor widely recognized as the auto industry's most important environmental accolade, celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. An increasing number of vehicle models are considered for the Green Car of the Year® program each year, a reflection of the auto industry's expanding efforts in offering new vehicles with higher efficiency and improved environmental impact. Green Car Journal has been honoring the most important "green" vehicles every year at the LA Auto Show, since its inaugural award announced at the show in 2005.
